Glad, I can help.

I'm working on some application now, which is supposed to be simple, but I'm working on three days already and it still doesn't behave, as it should :(

For instance, here is the peice of code, which I can not make to work correctly.

The idea is to check for gaps between two days and report them excluding weekends and holidays. What's wrong with this code or how it should be changed?

* -- Checking for missing data compared against last data received
* -- Check for Friday or Saturday for old and new is Monday date then we're not missing any data
		if (dow(Record_fm)=2 and Record_fm - PriorRec_To > 3) ;
		    or (dow(Record_fm)<> 2 and Record_fm > PriorRec_To+1) 
			tmpDays = Record_fm - PriorRec_To
			if m.tmpDays > 1
				for i = 1 to m.tmpDays-1
* -- Check against holiday for each missing record && Sundays & Saturdays
					if dow(PriorRec_To+m.i)<>1 and dow(PriorRec_To+m.i)<>7 ;
							and !seek(PriorRec_To+m.i,'Holidays')
						lcTempStr = "May have Missing Recorded data for "+ dtoc(PriorRec_To+m.i)+"."
						if not m.lcTempStr $ m.tmpNotesStr
							tmpNotesStr = iif(empty(m.tmpNotesStr),'',m.tmpNotesStr+chr(13)) + m.lcTempStr
						endif
						llMDFlag = .t.
					endif			&& Missing Data
				endfor				&& Going to the next date to check for missing data
			endif
		endif					&& Checks for Fri or Sat and Mon

>Thanks Nadya. I think I understand the idea now. Coding can get really complicated for me sometimes as it's hard to visualize how to put things in the correct place.
